The idea of terraforming Mars has, in recent times, become a topic of intense scientific interest and great public debate. Stimulated in part by the contemporary imperative to begin geoengineering Earth, as a means to combat global climate change, the terraforming of Mars will work to make its presently hostile environment more suitable to life - especially human life. Geoengineering and terraforming, at their core, have the same goal - that is to enhance (or revive) the ability of a specific environment to support human life, society, and industry. The articles in this text, written by experts in their respective fields, are accordingly in resonance with the important, and on-going discussions concerning the human stewardship of global climate systems. In this sense, the text is both timely and relevant, and will cover issues relating to topics that will only grow in their relevance in future decades. The notion of terraforming Mars is not a new one, as such, and it has long played as the background narrative in many science fiction novels. This book, however, deals exclusively with what is physically possible, and what might conceivable be put into actual practice within the next several human generations.
